We drive this road regularly. It's crazy and very dangerous to allow 60mph through Newtown. It's a narrow road with cottages right on the road. 60mph is far too fast for the Fowey road as a whole, but especially for Newtown.

60 mph through that area is ridiculous. Reducing the speed will most definitely help avoid any further serious accidents.

Cars travel far too fast through this very narrow and populated road!

We have already had at least 2 near fatal accidents on this road. It is far too narrow for a 60 mile/ hour speed limit. There is a fatal accident waiting to happen!

I live in Fowey and the B3629 between Fowey and the A390 is a nightmare. A reduction in the speed limit through Newtown would be much appreciated.

The 60mph limit through Newtown is far too dangerous and 20mph would be safer. The road is used by large vehicles and the road is narrow, add to that the bends so not good visibility. You often have to pull over into peoples drives/laybys to let the larger vehicles through.
It definitely needs the 20 mph speed limit and more signs of hazards.

The speed limit of 60 is ridiculous for this narrow road, so close to houses. It is dangerous for drivers passing each other and for pulling out from Newtown cottages on to the main road. You take your life in your hands each time ! Please reduce this from 60 to 40 or 30 before another accident happens.

Two serious accidents recently...a narrow one car width road in places, heavy traffic with cars, boats, tractors, caravans, lorries - all driving far too fast. No pavements here either for pedestrians so people have to walk in the road and leap back into the hedges to avoid being knocked over!

As a resident I have witnessed and supported victims of accidents whilst waiting for police and medics to arrive – we must do something to raise awareness reduce the speed and make people know that this is a narrow road with buses tractors et cetera coming towards them.
